Cool Does your FC pass emissons this well?

Just got back from getting my car inspected, just thought Id post my emission test results. Here the important stuff anyway, Im gonna try to make a graph, dont laugh at me :

Mode - C02 -- HC ppm - Dilution
idle limit: 1.2 /reading-.01 Lim-220 reading-25 12.3%
2500 limit: 1.2 /reading-.01 Lim-220 reading-4 12.3%

I think thats pretty darn good. Exhaust mods in sig. Do all of your FCs pass this well? I've always heard of rx-7s barely passing, but mine runs really clean.

I'm in NJ, where the emissions test is pretty tough, and my '88 SE just passed in April with my numbers at about one-tenth of the allowable. Ninety per cent headroom ain't bad. 50k on the Mazda rebuilt engine, and no mods.

Well the graphing idea didnt work out that well I see
this may be easier to understand:

Idle Co2: limit 1.20 reading: .01 Pass
2500rpm co2 limit 1.20 reading: .01 Pass

Idle hc ppm limit 220 reading: 25 Pass
2500rpm hc limit 220 reading: 4 Pass

idle dilution: 12.3% Pass
2500 dilution 12.5% Pass

My N/A passed California smog check II on the dyno ... passed with flying colors & it had over 198k miles on the original engine when it passed. If you take care of them .. and leave the smog system in check they should do alright.

I threw the whole stock exhaust system and an air pump on my 'FD' and it passed with 4 HC at high and low rpm (legal limit in de is 220HC) , and 0.00 CO(limit 1.2) at high and low. Before that i think it was 2364 HC and 6.70 CO

Is smog check every other year? I had to re-smog mine again this year. Just did it last year in april - both on "Test only" station. Anyway, the car is stock and passed without any problems.

Here's a url for cali folks to check your car's smog history: http://165.235.17.9/stdPage.asp?Body.../pubtstqry.htm

thats nothing.... mine polluted the sensors so bad that the next 3 cars that came onto the dyno made them not pass emissions i think my HC content was well over 2500HC and co was nearing 7 flat... hahaha
